Vessel Walkthrough:

Boarding “YAHTZEE” from the transom, you immediately notice one of the standout features of the final Picnic Boat EP models—the integrated transom door, introduced in 2007 to make stepping aboard from the swim platform effortless and safe. The heavy-duty fiberglass swim platform provides ample space for water access, tender handling, or simply enjoying the sun. As you step into the cockpit, Hinckley’s signature craftsmanship is on full display. Comfortable seating wraps along the aft section, enhanced by Sunbrella cushions, creating a stylish and inviting space for guests to relax while cruising or at anchor. Elegant teak accents, clean decks, and thoughtfully designed storage exemplify the boat’s refined pedigree and meticulous care.

From the cockpit, you move seamlessly into the extended pilothouse, the defining feature of the EP design and the social heart of the yacht. This bright, all-weather space offers exceptional visibility through large windows, ideal for navigating all waters. To port, the L-shaped settee with varnished table provides an inviting spot for dining or enjoying scenic views, while forward, the dual Stidd helm chairs offer luxurious seating with excellent sightlines in all directions. The helm station showcases Hinckley’s craftsmanship, featuring the custom JetStick 2 control system integrated with Bow thruster and the fully upgraded 2025 Volvo D6 440-hp diesel engine, providing effortless maneuverability and smooth, responsive handling. Upgraded Raymarine ST-6001 Autopilot with GyroPlus 2, integrated GPS, and new electronic controls ensure precise navigation for both coastal cruising and extended passages.

Descending through the companionway, the cabin exudes warmth and refinement with satin-varnished cherry woodwork and a varnished teak-and-tulipwood cabin sole protected by a custom cover. Louvered cherry locker doors, Frigast stainless bulkhead lights, and cherry shelving enhance both style and functionality. To port, the galley is thoughtfully arranged for day trips or extended cruising, featuring a generous countertop with custom cherry cover for extra prep space, built-in microwave, lift-up refrigerator, and a tall pantry with shelving that discreetly houses the fusion stereo system, maximizing both convenience and storage.

To starboard, the private head provides comfort and functionality, complete with a shower, proper ventilation, and high-quality fixtures. Moving forward, the V-berth serves as a cozy sleeping area for two, with soft lighting and warm wood finishes creating a peaceful retreat. The cabin layout feels spacious and welcoming, offering more room and comfort than expected on a 36-foot express cruiser.

Every inch of “YAHTZEE” reflects the hallmark qualities that have made the Hinckley Picnic Boat an icon: superior craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and meticulous maintenance. From the inviting cockpit to the bright pilothouse and beautifully finished accommodations below, this 2007 36’ Hinckley Picnic Boat EP is a turnkey yacht ready for cruising. Recent upgrades—including the brand-new 2025 Volvo D6 engine, Raymarine electronics, and all new batteries—ensure that she performs as beautifully as she looks, making this a rare opportunity for discerning buyers seeking classic style combined with modern reliability.
